Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  James Cole : Where are you right now? Somewhere warm? Safe? Next to someone you love? Now, what if all that was gone, and the only thing you could do is survive? You would, right? You'd try. You'd do things - horrible things. Until you lose that last thing you have left: yourself. But what if you could take it back? All of it? A reset switch? You'd hit it, right? You'd have to, even if you didn't want to. Because sometimes the choice isn't even yours. It's fate.

• [after Ramse has been critically injured, Cole helps him up] 

  José Ramse : [groggy]  What're you doing?

  James Cole : No one has to die. We'll find another way. We'll find another way.

• Aaron Marker : You're no savior, Cole. You're just a savage.

  James Cole : You want to know what makes a savage? Seeing shit no kid should ever see and then doing the same thing to survive. I was just a boy, watching the world die, alone. Now I know who I have to thank for that.
